  • The Relationship Between Music Therapists'
    THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MUSIC THERAPISTS‟ SPIRITUAL BELIEFS AND CLINICAL PRACTICE A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By Roberta Stewart Kagin August, 2010 Examining Committee Members: Cheryl L. Dileo, Advisory Chair, Music Education and Therapy/Music Therapy Kenneth E. Bruscia, Music Education and Therapy/Music Therapy Christine Anderson, Music/Voice and Opera Ed Flanagan, External Member, Music Studies/Jazz © by Roberta Stewart Kagin 2010 All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT The Relationship Between Music Therapists’ Spiritual Beliefs and Clinical Practice Roberta Stewart Kagin Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, 2010 Doctoral Advisory Committee Chair: Cheryl Dileo This study examined the relationship between music therapists‟ spiritual beliefs and their clinical practices. A survey was sent to 4243 members of the Certification Board for Music Therapy, using an electronic program, SurveyMonkey. There was a return rate of 32%. The survey contained two parts; Part I was the Music Therapy Questionnaire, and Part II was the Spiritual Involvement and Beliefs Scale (SIBS). Data were analyzed using a combination of Kruskal-Wallis Anova, Mann-Whitney U, and Spearman Rho correlation tests to analyze both the relationships as well as significant variations in responses between the survey questions and the SIBS scores. Research questions focused on the relationships between the music therapists‟ spirituality scores (SIBS) and their demographics, their reported spiritual beliefs and practices, and their clinical practices. Statistical analyses revealed significant differences in the relationship between SIBS scores and gender, age, and years of professional experience; however, there were no significant differences between SIBS scores and education level, regions of AMTA, or client populations served.

ALSO: Paul Kurtz Peter Christina Hoff Sommers Tibor Machan Joan Kennedy Taylor Christopher Hitchens `Secular Humanism THE AFFIRMATIONS OF HUMANISM: LI I A STATEMENT OF PRINCIPLES free inquiry We are committed to the application of reason and science to the understanding of the universe and to the solving of human problems. We deplore efforts to denigrate human intelligence, to seek to explain the world in supernatural terms, and to look outside nature for salvation. We believe that scientific discovery and technology can contribute to the betterment of human life. We believe in an open and pluralistic society and that democracy is the best guarantee of protecting human rights from authoritarian elites and repressive majorities. We are committed to the principle of the separation of church and state. We cultivate the arts of negotiation and compromise as a means of resolving differences and achieving mutual under- standing. We are concerned with securing justice and fairness in society and with eliminating discrimination and intolerance. We believe in supporting the disadvantaged and the handicapped so that they will be able to help themselves. We attempt to transcend divisive parochial loyalties based on race, religion, gender, nationality, creed, class, sexual ori- entation, or ethnicity, and strive to work together for the common good of humanity. We want to protect and enhance the earth, to preserve it for future generations, and to avoid inflicting needless suf- fering on other species. We believe in enjoying life here and now and in developing our creative talents to their fullest.

  • 2021 Commencement Program
    Macalester College St. Paul, Minnesota The One Hundred and Thirty-Second COMMENCEMENT The Fifteenth of May Two Thousand and Twenty-One 1 MACALESTER COLLEGE In March 2021, Macalester College celebrated the 147th anniversary of its founding. The college received its charter from the State of Minnesota in 1874, and for the next several years its founders raised funds, hired faculty, planned courses, completed a classroom-office-residence building, and recruited students in preparation for Macalester’s opening in September 1885. The legacy of those founders—Presbyterian ministers and educators who strove for rigor and excellence—is a liberal arts college recognized for its academic excellence, its traditions of international and intercultural understanding, and its commitment to civic engagement. To carry out its educational mission, Macalester has assembled a distinguished faculty of 220 full-time and 70 part-time teachers and scholars who represent a broad array of disciplines in the natural sciences, social sciences, humanities, and fine arts. Macalester’s 2,009 full-time and 40 part-time students represent 50 states (and Washington, D.C.) in the United States and 95 other nations. Their academic achievements are numerous and impressive, as demonstrated by awards including 13 Rhodes Scholarships since 1904, and, in the last 10 years, 62 Fulbright Grants, 42 National Science Foundation Fellowships, 10 Thomas J. Watson Fellowships, four Truman Scholarships, four Goldwater Fellowships, one Beinecke Scholarship, and one Udall Scholarship. Macalester’s international emphasis is reflected in the fact that about 60 percent of its students study abroad for a semester or more during their college careers.
